This video shows a robot writing a simple computer program. He needs to accomplish assignment 2, which is to write a program that can convert Fahrenheit to Celsius. There are no sound in the video because I wanted to show the viewers what the robot's thoughts are when he is writing a software program. These thoughts include: what is the robot thinking of, what kind of facts is he using, how did he generate that logic, etc.

Although this assignment appears to be easy, the robot has to use human intelligence in order to solve it. The robot has to first brainstorm ideas on how to write the software. Just like writing a book, or designing a poster, or drafting a blueprint to a house, the robot has to write notes on paper. These notes help organize the linear steps the robot has to take in order to accomplish assignment2. These notes include text, diagrams, flow charts, linear steps, etc.

The robot uses notes to write software programs. He draws diagrams, write text, remind himself what he has to do, layout the structure of the program, etc. These notes help the robot to organize data and to focus his attention on what he needs to do in order to accomplish assignment2.

During the writing of the software program, the robot might forget some things or he might get lost. When that happens, the robot will take out his notes and analyze it to determine what he has to do next. Reading the notes can help the robot's brain activate the correct steps or facts (for the short term) while the robot is writing the program.
